Aim To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ertugliflozin and sitagliptin co‐administration vs the individual agents in patients with type 2 diabetes who are inadequately controlled with metformin. Methods In this study (http://Clinicaltrials.gov NCT02099110), patients with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥7.5% and ≤11.0% (≥58 and ≤97 mmol/mol) with metformin ≥1500 mg/d (n = 1233) were randomized to ertugliflozin 5 (E5) or 15 (E15) mg/d, sitagliptin 100 mg/d (S100) or to co‐administration of E5/S100 or E15/S100. The primary endpoint was change from baseline in HbA1c at Week 26. Results At Week 26, least squares mean HbA1c reductions from baseline were greater with E5/S100 (−1.5%) and E15/S100 (−1.5%) than with individual agents (−1.0%, −1.1% and −1.1% for E5, E15 and S100, respectively; P < .001 for all comparisons).
